GDF SUEZ Worldwide a large share of Renewable
Energy

• Renewable energy sources are a response to the
  citizens concerns and an integral part of the
  activities associated to Sustainable Development
  within GDF SUEZ. The Group is facing five majors
  challenges and renewable energy may certainly be
  part of the solution
• Strengthening our international presence,
• Adapting our activities to new markets,
  regulations, energy policies, etc
• Fighting climate change,
• Preserving scarce resources,
• Supporting social development in emerging
  countries.

GDF SUEZ installed capacity in renewable energy
at end 2008 (in MW)

• 18.5 of total GDF SUEZ installed power capacity.
• 20 of the Groups electricity generation
• Almost 5,400 MW in development projects.
• A clear objectiveTo double the generation
  capacity from renewable sources between 2007 and
  2013

10,577 Hydro power
12,7 GW
1,340 Wind power
755.7 Biomass and biogas
5.2 Municipal wasteand solar power

GDF SUEZ in the MENA region
1. Mediterranean basin

• The Group is traditionally active in the region
  all along the energy and environment value chain,
  from upstream to downstream and is looking to be
  even more active to bring the essentials to the
  populations energy, environment and sustainable
  development.
• Growing activities and new business interests in
  the South Mediterranean Algeria, Morocco, Egypt,
  Turkey, Libya.
• Algeria waste water treatment, EP, pipeline,
  engineering services, water supply, energy

• Context
• MENAs consumption of energy is growing faster
  than that of any other region in the world. For
  this reason, countries are increasingly looking
  to scale-up energy efficiency and renewable
  energy as part of their energy development and
  security strategies. CSP is considered a
  particularly promising low carbon option in the
  region.
• Scaling-up of solar energy is attractive within
  the regional context due several key reasons
• it is a vehicle to promote economic integration
  in the Mediterranean and Gulf region, and provide
  export revenues
• it can help achieve industrial modernization and
  diversification objectives, and enhance job
  creation
• increased use of solar energy would free-up
  valuable oil and gas resources that could then be
  utilized for higher value-added purposes
• in countries with limited energy resources,
  energy supply diversification through renewable
  energy increases energy security
• as the global solar industry is at the beginning
  of a market take-off, entry at the stage will
  offer Arab countries a firm first-mover
  advantage.

GDF SUEZ and the Concentrated Solar Power (CSP)
project

• Objectives
• The Mediterranean Solar Plan (MSP) was
  originally initiated by France in the context of
  the Mediterranean Solar Planincludes a large
  vision on the development of solar energy and
  other renewables in the region, with a total
  target of 20 GW by 2020.
• WB, jointly with IFC and AfDB are focused in the
  preparation of a 1GW CSP plan for MENA over the
  next 6-8 years
• Wise allocation of the future new electricity
  capacity between (1) domestic consumption on one
  hand and export to European markets on the other
  and (2) CSP capacities and other power generation
  sources
• Strengths
• Favourable climatic conditions for deployment of
  large-scale solar power generation facilities,
•  
• CSP technologies may have reached a certain
  level of maturity that would enable its
  deployment on a large scale basis.
•  
• Solar-based technologies have a significant
  potential in terms of creation of new markets,
  creating jobs, technology transfer and these
  technologies are therefore set to boost economic
  and social development.
•  
• Solar energy is a renewable energy and thus
  contributes to the climate change fight.

• Issues
• It is crucial to promote the convergence of
  practices and the integration of energy markets
  (legislation regulation, institutional
  frameworks, etc)
•  
• The CSP project framework has to be aligned with
  any given members respective legislation
  regarding climate change and energy sector
  policy
•  
• The establishment of public/private and
  private/private partnerships must be promoted in
  order to increase the development of industrial
  projects.
•  
• Electrical interconnections between countries of
  the Euro-Mediterranean region must be facilitated
  and implemented
•  
• The financial viability of CSP plant depends on
  several factors, such as

• capital costs of the plant,
• capacity factor,
• financing terms by the CTF,
• tariff affordability,
• fiscal incentives,
• level of CER revenue.

• Conclusion
• GDF SUEZ wants to position itself as a relevant
  player in the renewable market and recognizes
  that CSP shall be a major technology in this
  field, in addition to wind and hydroelectric
  power technology.
•  
• GDF SUEZ brings its know-how in project
  development and technology as well as its
  in-depth knowledge of the region.
•  
• A great effort of cooperation between all
  stakeholders is needed.
• As a player from the private sector, we have
  specific investment criteria which take into
  account all aspects of any given project.
•  
• No single company, government or institution has
  the answers to all the questions. GDF SUEZ wants
  certainly to be part of the solution of this
  major endeavour.
• GDF SUEZ wishes to be a partner to implement the
  Mediterranean Solar Project and has proposed wind
  projects for the first phase of this ambitious
  project. Our Group will participate as a member
  of the Observatoire Méditerranéen de lEnergies
  (OME) to work in support to the MSP. In this
  context, the CSP MENA programme shall play a key
  role
